League News

As I mentioned in channel last night, I still want to get some code done before starting the regular season but that doesn't mean we can't move on with the waiver draft and the Challenge Tournament. And any team swaps that come through, I suppose, though I think those would have happened already if we were going to get any.

I just want to give a State of the League statement to cover a couple things from recent events.

First off, I want to start with some points that I said to Dave as he and I discussed his missing a draft pick in the Season 30 Entry Draft. For the sake of transparency, this is very nearly a copy and paste from my conversation with him.

I've been thinking on this and I'm going to continue doing so, but the league deserves to know what's happening.

I should not have opened this up to debate. The minute I did so, the consensus was always going to be that we should give Dave another chance. _Every_ time we have ever discussed punishing a GM, the vote has been in favor of keeping him around. Al would still be in the league if I hadn't exercised executive privilege. So I shouldn't have bothered having a discussion about this.

Alright, with the league back to a full set of GMs, I suppose we're out of excuses to delay the Entry Draft. With the holidays and everything December is always a bit of a pain to work around, but we can probably find some dates that work. How about any of the following...

On a related note, if anyone is looking to trade a goalie, let me know. :stuck_out_tongue:

With games completed, it's time for award voting to wrap up Season 29 and move on to Season 30. As per usual, voting is done through the GM Tools and is required. We'll call noon on Sunday the deadline for getting votes in. After that, we'll move on to re-rates and see if we need any new GMs and try to get Season 30 going pretty quickly.
